The Frye Harness 8R is an 8-inch harness boot in washed and oiled leather with Goodyear welt construction, so the sole can be resoled and the leather darkens and softens with wear. It is the classic Frye silhouette: a harness ring and strap across the ankle, a stacked heel and a round toe. It suits shoppers who want a rugged, broken-in leather boot that ages rather than a lightweight fashion boot. Against slimmer harness styles and cheaper lookalikes, the real leather and welted build are the main draw; the trade-off is weight and a stiff break-in period.
